Demonstrators unveil "Stop Killing Us" banner at St. Louis baseball game
(Reuters) - Demonstrators unfurled a banner that read Stop Killing Us at a Major League baseball game on Friday in St. Louis, where they were protesting the acquittal of a white former police officer who was accused of murdering a black man, local media reported.
A video posted on Facebook showed a group of demonstrators high above the playing field holding a banner with the St. Louis Cardinals mascot drawn on it as they shouted No Justice. No Baseball and You cant stop the revolution.
The demonstrators were ushered out of the Busch Stadium, where the Cardinals lost to the Brewers 5-3. They then joined 200 other people in a march before the group was confronted by police in riot gear, who used a Taser on one and pepper spray on others, the St. Louis Post Dispatch reported.
At least two people were arrested, police said on Twitter.
